From The West House

1:00 AM

Long Journey Home.

Many a time has this man wandered through the night,

But never in so distant a land.

Male bravado shrugged off the worry of his fellow tribesman as he parted.

But now he is out

Without the safety of those diverse creatures surrounding him.

Will he survive?

Through this small town there is not a sound.

Only the sound of this young man's luggage dragged down cobblestone streets.

Fear arises from within.

He is alone.

He has only one hand-written sheet as his guide.

How is it that a Summer night could be so cold?

He ponders.

How did he ever get here?

He questions.

The memories of this week on mission seem to have simply vanished from this land.

Yet in his heart they remain.

Will he carry this back home?

Seeking for a silence from the luggage he mutters a "shhh"

Approaching the station

He sees he is not the only life in transport.

And though he does not know if his directions are right.

He is certain he will get home.
